  Experimental procedures Introduction Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is an anthropogenic compound with high thermal, chemical and biological stability, which makes it a perfect ingredient for many industrial applications (Kissa, 2001). Nevertheless, these characteristics also mean that PFOS i

  Nicotine is the main psychoactive component of tobacco that causes addiction. Besides the regulation of the stress responses, CRF has been implicated in nicotine addiction based on several lines of evidence (Bruijnzeel and Gold, 2005, Sarnyai et al., 2001). First, acute administration of nicotine,

  2020-12-14

  

  Almost all previously published haplotype association studies have demonstrated the importance of haplotype reconstruction because the combinations of SNPs exert synergistic effects on protein function. Even synonymous polymorphisms within haplotypes can have functional consequences that are drastic

  2020-12-14

  

  Using characteristic features of ECM proteins and a computational pipeline combining interrogation of protein and gene databases, we previously defined the matrisome as the ensemble of ECM and ECM-associated proteins [[16], [17], [18]]. In mammals, the matrisome represents 4% of the genome, or appro

  Chk 1 and Chk 2 mediated signaling act as a barrier to tumorigenesis It was hypothesized recently that early events during tumorigenesis, such as the overexpression of oncogenes, lead to a DNA-damage response which, in turn halts tumor progression [44], [45], [46]. The DNA-damage response is prop

  In recent years, there has been much interest within the endothelin community regarding the possibility that ETA and ETB receptors may form homo- and heterodimers. Heterodimerization of endothelin receptors may provide an explanation for the results mentioned in the previous paragraph and might also

  2020-12-14

  

  The transcription factor CREB has been extensively studied for its role in hippocampus-dependent learning and memory (West et al., 2002, Lonze and Ginty, 2002). Previous research has demonstrated that the phosphorylation of CREB at Ser133, performed by the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, initiates a casca

Most common among them is neurodegenerative diseases, in which the protein abnormally cell tak synth

  In SLO-permeabilized human sperm, the AR elicited by calcium, persistently active Arf6 [41] and Rab3A, 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP [8], diacylglycerol and a non-hydrolyzable analog [35], is sensitive to the PLC blocker U73122. Furthermore, 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP elicits a calcium signal in non-permeabilized sp

  As illustrated in Table 3, monocyclic Methylprednisolone synthesis analogs were synthesized and evaluated. 2-Oxido-3H-1,2,3,5-oxathiadiazol analog 8 showed 15-fold less potent EP1 receptor affinity relative to 2b, while it showed 2.2-fold more potent antagonist activity. Oxadiazole-5-one analog 9 e

  Introduction Collagen fibrillogenesis, the assembly of collagen fibers, is a critical process in the development, maturation, and repair of mammalian tissue. Alterations in the structure and amount of deposited collagen fibers can greatly alter the integrity of the whole tissue. Even a single point

  EBV Infection Epstein–Barr virus (EBV, human herpesvirus 4) was discovered 50 years ago, when Epstein, Achong, and Barr used electron microscopy to identify viral particles in Burkitt's lymphoma cells. It belongs to the lymphocryptovirus (LCV) genus of the gammaherpesvirus subfamily (Fig. 1A). Th

  The important role of miRNAs in cellular differentiation has been proposed recently. Previous studies had suggested roles for different miRNAs during osteogenesis [20]. Certain miRNAs could promote osteoblast differentiation, such as miR-194 [20], whereas others could inhibit the cell differentiatio

  2020-12-12

  

  The present study is a genetic association study using the classic candidate gene approach. This method has been repeatedly criticized in the past to produce highly unreliably findings (e.g. Flint & Munafò, 2013). The alternative would be the conduction of a Benzamil receptor wide association study
